"Dear Future Student,

My name is Luz and I graduated from high school with the highest academic achievement (3.73 GPA) and won the bronze medal in the national Spanish exam while taking AP Spanish. I also am bilingual in Spanish and English. Right now, I am currently in college majoring in Pre-Medical health studies, and plan to become a pediatrician. I am also, a teacher at my local elementary school and help kids (ages 6-11) with homework. I work with them and give them tips on how to learn and memorize topics quickly. I love being able to make something tricky or unknown into something that the student feels comfortable learning and even explaining to others.

I was once in ESOL when I was little and I know that the most important thing is to practice and feel comfortable learning. I have experience teaching kids Spanish or learning English because when I was the President of the Spanish National Society in High School we taught the elementary kids Spanish. Every week I would make posters, flashcards, games, and activities to make the learning process fun. I went through topics like greetings, the weather, animals, activities, sports, etc. Conversation is also a big part of learning a new language so there is also lots of practice speaking. I plan to make the learning experience fun and at the same time educational. I look forward to meeting you!" less...
